If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter

When Zhou Wan arrived, Qin Shu was leading the shop assistants to count the losses and pack up the broken items.

The store is temporarily closed for one day.

Seeing Zhou Wanzhi, Qin Shu hurried over and apologized, "Please forgive me, this shop is really too messy, there are too many broken porcelain and wood chips, please move away, I will invite you to come again after I have cleaned up everything."

Zhou Wan turned around and asked, "It's smashed like this...won't you report it to the police?"

Qin Shu smiled helplessly and said softly: "The rouge and creams from the past few days have all been sold out, and there is nothing valuable in the store. If we report it to the authorities, the store will not be able to open for a while, so forget it."

Zhou Wan hated him for not fighting back, "You are so useless! You are like a soft bun, letting others manipulate you."

Qin Shu sighed and said, "What the princess said is true. But if I report it to the authorities this time, the thief will only be detained for a few days."

"I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future. Do I have to trouble the yamen runners every time? The yamen has a lot of things to do, and the yamen runners are busy with official duties. They can't just take care of me."

Zhou Wan was about to say something when she suddenly remembered what her second brother had said a few days ago.

Ultimately, it is because Qin Shu has no power and is an orphan. No matter whether they are people with whom she has had grudges or people in the same industry, they cannot bear to see her doing well.

She said angrily, "Well, I'll come back after you've cleaned up your store. If you need any help, just let me know."

Qin Shu smiled and knelt down, "Thank you, Princess."

As a result, the store that had just been cleaned up was smashed to pieces again in the middle of the night the next day.

This time it wasn't Qin Shu who asked someone to do it.

Just after cleaning it up, it was smashed again.

After being smashed for the fourth time, Qin Shu stood in the dilapidated shop, looking at the mess on the floor and laughing speechlessly: she had set a good example, and countless colleagues followed suit.

But it saved me a lot of trouble.

Zhou Wan kicked a broken-legged stool away, her face turning blue with anger. "Too much! Too much! How can you bully others like this? If I knew who did this, I would break his legs!"

There were also more than a dozen ladies from wealthy families who came to have a show today. After hearing what she said, they all spoke up for Qin Shu, "Yes, Shopkeeper Qin, why don't you report it to the police? If this continues, will you be able to open your store?"

Qin Shu looked embarrassed. "Report to the police? I'm afraid it might not be done by the same family. After reporting to the police, they will just arrest some hooligans who are paid to do things. If we arrest this group of people and replace them with another group to cause trouble, it will only cost a few more taels of silver."

A lady named Chen hesitated and said, "I think those people are bullying Shopkeeper Qin because he is weak. If Shopkeeper Qin doesn't give up, we can join forces and pay some money to invest in this store."

Before he finished speaking, his face had already turned red.

It sounds like he sees others making money and wants to get a piece of the pie.

It seems like taking advantage of someone's misfortune.

She quickly explained, "We don't mean anything else, I..."

"That's a good idea!" Zhou Wan patted the woman's shoulder and raised an eyebrow at Qin Shu. "What do you think? We don't want too much dividends, as long as the store can continue to operate."

She waved her fist vigorously and gritted her teeth, saying, "Whoever dares to offend me will be punished by me!"

Qin Shu's eyes gradually turned red. She bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Princess and the other young ladies, for your help. Qin Shu, I am truly grateful!"

Zhou Wan smiled proudly, bent down and helped Qin Shu up, and said, "What are you grateful for? We are just taking advantage of you."

Qin Shu felt relieved and said with a smile: "Then, all our products will be provided free of charge to anyone who buys shares in our store..."

"How can that be done?" Another young lady said hastily, "This will easily lead to disputes over time. It is better to pay the price and then share the dividends according to the amount of shares invested."

"Yes, this is best."

"I'll give you 200 taels first." A young lady took out a silver note from her sleeve pocket and said with a blushing face, "I only brought this much with me when I went out today. I wonder how much shares Miss Qin wants to give up? I'll bring more silver tomorrow."

"Then I'll give you five hundred taels."

"I only brought a hundred..." The little girl looked down at her purse and said, "One hundred and twenty taels."

Zhou Wan felt a little uneasy: although she had the dignity of a princess, she was not as wealthy as her.

The palace reached the level of a prince up to her father's generation, and the next generation would be downgraded to a prince of a county.

By then, the salary and fiefdom will be reduced by half, and life in the mansion will probably become even more difficult.

Even now, there are so many wives, concubines, and legitimate and illegitimate children in the palace, so no matter how much silver is distributed to them, it will only be a drop in the bucket.

She doesn't even have as much private property as these rich daughters.

Of course, she is even worse than Miss Qin.

Zhou Wan said with some lack of confidence: "I, I'll pay one thousand taels."

Ask her brother for it when she gets home!

If you don’t give it to me, I’ll throw a tantrum!

Since the princess offered one thousand taels, it would be difficult for others to offer more than her.

Finally, Qin Shu asked accountant Sun to do some statistics, and found that a total of twelve young ladies had participated in the investment and received 2,820 taels of capital.

It was agreed to sell 40% of the shares, and after calculating each lady's share, the ladies returned home happily.

Qin Shu kept Zhou Wan.

Qin Shu handed Zhou Wan the shareholding contract that was newly drafted by Accountant Sun, and said sincerely: "The princess is a noble lady, and it is an honor for our shop to be favored by her."

"With the princess here, those scoundrels will never dare to act recklessly again. The shop can continue to operate thanks to the princess's prestige."

"I am a humble woman with low status and I have no way to repay the princess for her support, so I asked Accountant Sun to draft a new shareholding contract for your review."

"I have already invested in the company and the contract has been signed. However, the princess is different from others and cannot be treated the same way. Therefore, I will give you another 20% of my share. I sincerely hope that the princess can accept it. This way, this small shop will have more confidence."

After a burst of ecstasy, Zhou Wan quickly calmed down and pushed the contract back, "No, this won't do. You opened this store. How can I accept rewards without any merit?"

And who knows what's going on here?

You must know that the more benefits you get, the greater the responsibility you bear.

She is not the only one who pays money to get dividends, and others will not say anything if they find out.

But I gave her shares for no reason...

Qin Shu had expected that she would be suspicious, so she smiled and said, "May I ask, Princess, for a temple that is popular with people, which is more important, the temple or the Buddha?"

Zhou Wan's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked stubbornly, "What does this have to do with the stock amount?"

Qin Shu said: "No matter where the Buddha sits, he will enjoy a constant flow of incense; but without the effective Buddha, even the most magnificent temple will fall into disrepair."

"So, whether a temple is prosperous or not depends on the Buddha, not the temple. My shop can stand firm among its peers only because of the princess."

"If you invest with money, the store will have more circulating capital. Having the princess in charge of the store is the foundation for the store to survive."

Qin Shu looked at Zhou Wan's somewhat moved expression and smiled slightly, saying, "Your Highness should take this 20% share. Moreover, this share is not included in the 40% share that was sold. Your Highness does not need to mention it to others. It is a token of my own appreciation."

Zhou Wan was still hesitant.

Qin Shu gently placed the contract in Zhou Wan's hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Princess. I am doing a legal business and will never do anything wrong in your name."

"As long as the news of the princess's participation in the store spreads, there is no need for the princess to do anything, and those scoundrels will not dare to make trouble again. I, a common woman, can stand up straighter."

This one sentence made Zhou Wan laugh.

More than 30% of the shares is indeed a big temptation considering the booming business of this store.

But no matter how popular a store is, it will be in vain if it is bullied and cannot be operated.

After Zhou Wan half-heartedly agreed, Qin Shu sent Zhou Wan out and left in a carriage.

Watching the carriage moving further and further away, Qin Shu breathed a sigh of relief.
